This works. I use it all the time. I now want to have my dialin session at login to call me back so the long distance call is billed to the company. I have the callback number in ppp.secret. That's where I get lost. Is the callback function going to hang up the incoming call and continue to use the same section in the ppp.conf to call me back? I have read man ppp over and over again and it contains no information on the flow of things. When the callback happens do we go through the login again or does who every answers the callback phone number gets right in?
